I'm not saying that it only took 2 mos to create the stadium but that it doesnt take years. I think we will see every BCS stadium and the mid majors like Boise St. etc. Really 95% of the potential customers only care about the major teams and stadiums anyway.

I think we are basically saying the same thing.

My point wasn't that an individual stadium takes years, it was that there are so many stadiums missing (more, in fact, than the total number included last year) that it's unrealistic to expect every single team to be "in the game" this year.

They'll probably add all or most of the missing 16 BCS schools, and then as many mid-majors as they have time for.

Unless Mario running and suction blocking are gone, I think I'll pass. NCAA 07 got less playing time from me than NCAA 06.

And then there's the 5% of us who wonder why our rival (Akron) got their stadium in while our school which is 11 miles away (Kent St.) didn't get the same treatment

It sucks but thats the way it is. This game is marketed toward the masses and the masses could give a damn if Kent State or E. Michigan has their stadium.

I agree. This game has to improve by leaps and bounds for me to buy it. I feel like I wasted money on it last year. I couldnt even get past Year 1 in Dynasty.

Oh, believe me, I understand that. Hell, Kent's stadium is a generic as they come (and I would have been happy with a generic "bleachers on both sides and the ends" stadium), but the fact they did Akron's stadium is a bit puzzling. They aren't exactly a superpower, even in the MAC.

I'm sorry but that's hilarious.
